The best team in the MLB, the Phillies face off in the second game of the series against the Nationals. This season everything works out for the Phillies. At bat, they are among the top 10 MLB teams in TB, RBIs, HR, BB, Avg and SB. Bohm having a surprising season, Brycer Harper will return to the lineup and is among the HR leaders. This team's OBP at the top of the starting lineup is so good that it has allowed them to not lose a single series since April 1st against the Reds. The Match on the mound is Gore vs. Sanchez, Gore is a strikeout pitcher par excellence, but he has a tendency to receive high-velocity lines back and fill up with a high number of pitches quickly. The Phillies found in Sánchez another pitcher capable of "eating innings", he reached at least 5IP in his last three starts. In general, two picthers with very similar profiles. Not much was expected from the Nationals this year. This rookie team is not in any of the top positions in any pitching or hitting category, but they are good at running the bases and not allowing HRs. They have a pretty decent record. The Phillies took the first series in Washington.

Our Philadelphia Phillies vs Washington Nationals Prediction

It seems that the Phillies offense has no intention of stopping working. Even his coldest bat, N.Castellanos, has shown improvement lately. The Braves' chase for the division title will be just as intense as last year. Only for many this year the Phillies look even better. Gore is a regular rival on the mound, he will work them in the same way as always. For the second of the series they must attack Gore by not swinging pitches outside the zone and making solid contacts. The pace of the batting along with the effective starting pitching is putting the Phillies on a direct path to winning 100 games this year. Our prediction for Phillies vs Nationals is: Phillies ML, -180 at DraftKings.
